The data in Nova Scotia in OSM is broken. Someone imported large natural=water polygons on the coast over existing data.

The coastline should *not* be mapped with natural=water. _______________________________________________ Talk-ca mailing list Talk-ca@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-ca
